I don't listen to French music...

...but I found this on Pandora. At the time I first watched this I didn't know what the lyrics meant (I watched the English version later), but the video and the music alone was captivating. I initially wanted to exit YouTube when the video started playing, but I couldn't resist watching it all. It was beautifully done.

Emilie Simon's website has a sample of her music, which is quite engrossing. I like. (The website only links to her MySpace and Facebook, by the way.) Apparently she sings in English, too.

Here is the English version of "Desert". I suggest you listen to the French version first, however. If you're able to appreciate a song in a different language, then you know it's good.

I like the English version better but only because her voice sounds so different and eerie in English.
